Glasgow City Council has confirmed arrangements for bin collections over the festive period.

Due to the Christmas and New Year holidays, some collection days have changed.

Here is what we know.

Blue and purple bins which are scheduled to be picked up on December 25 and 26 respectively will now be collected on December 27 and 28 respectively. 

Green and brown bins will now also be picked up on December 27 and 28.

At New Year, blue and purple bins supposed to be picked up on January 1 and 2 will now be collected on January 3 and 4.

It is the same for green and brown bins.

Meanwhile, it's easy to collect more waste over the Christmas and New Year period, so anyone wishing to dispose of bulk waste can do so at the following recycling centres:

Dawsholm Recycling Centre, 75 Dalsholm Road, Glasgow G20 0TB

Easter Queenslie Recycling Centre, 90 Easter Queenslie Road, Glasgow G33 4UL

Polmadie Recycling Centre, 425 Polmadie Road, Glasgow G42 0PJ

Shieldhall Recycling Centre, Renfrew Road, Glasgow G51 4SA

These centres are open 7 days a week from 8am to 6pm (last entry at 5.45pm) but are closed on Christmas Day and New Year's Day.
